        I have a hive that seems to have alot of pollen frames.
 
        Is it ever the case that a hive can be pollen bound?
 
        How many frames of pollen is reasonable for 2 deep brood hive?
 
        Does it ever make sense to remove frames of pollen and replace with
foundation to increase the egg laying space?
 
        If so, can these be stored (frozen I would assumes to avoid wax
moths) and reused later when making splints or nucs or for winter stores?
 
        If the frames are discarded does it just go in the solar wax melter
as is?
 
        Thanks in advance,
